Hi everyone,

I've been checking in and trying to keep up with everybody. I've been spending time in the PZI board trying to get a dosing regime figured out for Sid and I wasn't sure of the posting protocol and if I should only post in one group at a time or what so that is why I was absent lately.

I have a happy vet report. Sid spent the afternoon at the vet getting a checkup and chest xray. It has been just about a week since he was diagnosed with pneumonia. His lungs are much clearer!! His breathing rate was still high (50/min) but his lungs are markedly better. He now weighs 5.8 pounds (up from 4.4 when he left the hospital on 2/4) :RAHCAT :RAHCAT AND he had a solid stool this morning and NO KETONES once again today!! :-D :-D

His bg levels are a little bit better with the increase in insulin so I couldn't be happier with his progress. We just take it one day at a time. And I am happy for every good day we are having. My vet was telling what a good job I was doing but you know what, it isn't me. It is Sid! He is the one who is a fighter and isn't going to go down easy. :lol: And I am very lucky to have such a great little guy in my life. (Even when he sprays the wall in the dining room right on the electrical outlet which he did last night).

You are family here and we look forward to your posts! Post wherever you want, we won't tell! :lol: :lol:
 
Lydia...what a great reort and it's so wonderful to hear Sid is doing so much better and has gained weight,

Keep it up Sid!
 
Lydia --

This WCR makes me very happy. However, I beg to differ. Sid would not have had the will to fight if it weren't for you. Sid came to you as an abandoned older guy and you have fought for him every step of the way. He knows how devoted to him you are. Keep doing what you're doing.
 
What an awesome WCR. I am so so happy for you. I also agree so much with what Sienne wrote. You have done so well by him - you guys are an incredible team. what a wonderful condo.

bummer on the spray thing....
 
I'm so happy for Sid and also you Lydia, I know how painful it is to see our little babies so sick. I'm so grateful that Sid is doing so well, (and yes, because of you)! :YMHUG: cat_pet_icon
 
Yay for some great news. Sid may be be fighting like the Australian SAS but I don't think he'd want to if he didn't have you to live for, what is life without love...
 
That's a great report, Lydia :-D
And you know, Sid is fighting so hard, because he wants to keep living and being with his devoted loving mommy.
Thank you so much for letting us know how he is doing. :thumbup
 
This news about Sid makes me very happy. :-D
Thank you Lydia, for everything you've done and continue to do for him. :YMHUG:
